Essen Events

design perspective. She was thorough, thoughtful, and honest with us from day one, and with her running the show seamlessly, we were truly able to let go and enjoy our wedding day. The floral arrangements she put together were stunning and nailed the vibes we were looking to create as well. You'll be in great hands with Essen Events!

not for her and her team. Our wedding was so perfect - absolutely magical, and so seamless! If there were fires to put out, we didn't know it. She handled everything. I absolutely recommend her and her team!

flawless. A few weeks before, she ensured the last details were set with our vendors (huge relief) and day-of really helped with the flow of the ceremony and reception (I did not realize how important this would be!). They are so passionate about your day being a dream. Seriously, our wedding turned out PERFECT and a massive reason for that was because of the Essen team taking care of background details, and offering such helpful tools ahead of time for month-of planning (ex: seating charts, timelines, music lists, ceremony outline, writing out what decor you need, and just great basic advice). Additionally, about half of our vendors were recommendations from them and were wonderful to work with. If you are even considering a day-of coordinator, DO IT! Absolutely 100% would recommend hiring Essen Events for your wedding.

e the design for the event spaces go from good to breathtaking. She was great in helping us determine event space options and narrow down our choices. She provided excellent recommendations for vendors. Day of, everything felt like it had a time and place - the day flowed smoothly thanks to her detailed timeline.

were incredible. Even as busy as she is, Hailey was able to get back to us in a timely manner with every last one of our questions. Our wedding was at The Hutton House and Hailey had plenty of recommendations and thoughts about what would look good and how we could reuse the floral at different points in the day. Hailey was also such a calming presence on a very hectic and sometimes stressful day and we were grateful we hired them for our day of coordination. The Essen team handled most of the communication with our vendors as our wedding day was getting closer and they were very thorough with ensuring everything was set up for an incredible day. We wish we could rate them higher than 5 stars!

nline planning tool is a lifesaver too! Melya was our amazing day of coordinator. Planning our wedding from out of state, we had a lot of upfront coordination to do and Melya handled everything with ease from the vendors, decor set up and rehearsal. Thank you so much Essen team for making our day so amazing and one we could fully enjoy!

was in large part due to Hailey’s attention to detail, care, and professionalism. She’s also just an all around great person which makes planning fun and relaxed. She also did our floral and we received many compliments on all of the floral displays. We loved everything she did for our wedding!

-of-it bride but they thought of questions to ask and things to plan for that I never would have, in addition to being so sweet and pleasant to work with. They are also super experienced and connected in the Minneapolis wedding vendor community which was really helpful for additional recommendations and relationships.

the start and a huge help in more ways than expected, she provided a planning tool that kept everything in line and I did not have a worry in the world knowing Essen had everything down to a T. The day of, Marie and her team were wizards managing to get every detail setup and teared down (might I add in MN summer humidity) ensuring the entire time I did not have to lift a finger, yet somehow making my vision come to life. You will not regret working with Essen Events!

municating with all vendors, something she did not need to provide but went above and beyond to do so. Hailey provided us with an online software to help plan the wedding and worked with all vendors to create the day of timeline. On the wedding day, she took care of all set up and tear down. She was the best day of coordinator, ensuring everything was on time and smoothly. We would not have had such a beautiful and smooth wedding without Hailey! She is excellent at what she does and I cannot say enough good things about her. I would highly recommend Hailey to any bride looking for floral, design, or a wedding planner!

out anything- which was so helpful when our plans completely changed during COVID. She’s professional, and she stays relaxed and approachable, so we always felt like we could ask her anything, anytime. Having someone so organized and so knowledgeable about events was such a comfort. On the day of the wedding, she made our event space look gorgeous with her floral and decor. As coordinator, from setup to tear down, she kept everything running smoothly. And she was ready for everything! When I spilled an entire glass of red wine down the front of my dress, Hailey was there with club soda and helped me get it out before I even realized what was happening. She’s who you want in charge of all the details so you can really enjoy your day. We can’t recommend her enough!

to the vision and vibe I had and created beautiful bouquets and bud vases. We had to downsize due to the pandemic, but Hailey still came through to create beautiful arrangements with a smaller budget. She really listened and was able to do more than I could have imagined.

hat other florists weren't as helpful on this front). I also found her prices to be reasonable. I ended up ordering 2 bridal bouquets (for split wedding), 6 bridesmaid bouquets, a toss bouquet, cake flowers, and 22 centerpieces for $2,000. We split up our wedding ceremony and reception because of COVID-19, and I am looking forward to see what Hailey will create for the reception. The bridal bouquet and the bridesmaid bouquets I got for the ceremony were absolutely gorgeous! They had a lovely color palette, and I thought they were the perfect size. We decided to pick them up from Hailey's house to save on delivery costs, and they were securely packaged. She even let me keep the vases! Overall, I had a very positive experience with Essen Events.

ates out of her. Brides and grooms will rest easy knowing they're in fantastic hands when they hire Essen Events!!

ible vision when it comes to putting together floral elements, and we are still getting compliments all the time in how beautiful our flowers and centerpieces looked. She was so easy to work with and very organized, and I would absolutely recommend her to future brides!

beautiful bouquets and installations. We were so happy with her work and would recommend her services to anyone planning an event! Thank you, Hailey <3

dly and welcoming attitude truly makes you feel like she is part of the family!

and on schedule! She made the day effortless and we are so grateful to her. We highly recommend working with Hailey and Essen Events! Her help truly takes the pressure off so you can focus on enjoying your day!

hat she couldn't provide and were easily found at Michaels/Hobby Lobby. Hayley is so friendly and has a beautiful vision for weddings. She is willing to listen to what the bride/grooms vision is too and incorporate that in perfectly to their day.

large event before). Hailey helped with our wedding day timeline and kept our day moving as planned. She made sure our parents were happy and taken care of, and coordinated with all the vendors so that things went smoothly. We even heard about a few hiccups that happened at the wedding, but not until after the fact. Hailey solved any issue that came up without my husband or I knowing it was even a problem. Hailey and her assistant worked incredibly hard until after midnight on our wedding day making sure our day was perfect. You will not regret considering Hailey and her team to help coordinate your event! It was money well spent!

I got to have fun and enjoy myself because I knew Hailey has all the details taken care of, she had all my decorations and stuff packed and ready in my car so at the end of the night I could just get in my car and leave. I’m really happy I got to work with her because my wedding was just perfect :)

ed with calm and confidence with everyone involved from venue to wedding party. Her floral creations were stunning and gave the event space an extra creative flair. She is also a lovely person to work with which is an added A+ bonus. If you want to simply enjoy the wedding day and have someone else worry about all the details this is your answer.

we were stressing, etc. But what made her so fantastic is that she managed to do this with such ease, patience, and style. She was calm, organized, friendly, and creative. She took our ideas and made them better. She made our wedding feel uniquely us - something I didn't know was possible. My fiance and I were not planning to hire any sort of wedding planner but, somewhat late in the process, decided to hire Hailey. We were skeptical and thought we could do it all on our own - we were wrong. Hailey made it possible for us to let go and truly enjoy our day without stress. I cannot recommend her enough. I simply could not have enjoyed my wedding as much as I did without her. You will not regret hiring her.
